Subject: [PATCH] hw/vmxnet3: fix vmxnet3 g_assert_not_reached bug

A g_assert_not_reached of vmxnet3 can be triggered by a guest with the root
privilege.
Remove the VMXNET3_REG_ICR branch thus get rid of this crash.

Fixes: 786fd2b0f87b ("VMXNET3 device implementation")

Hi folks, this is a suggestion for fixing this bug.
I'm willing to discuss this with you because I'm new to contribute to QEMU.

Best,
Qiang
